The Flareheads are our tribe. Economic developers working to improve communities we care about and that “get it the way we get it.” The Flareheads are BusinessFlare‘s team members, clients, friends, family, fans and true believers in our approach to strategic economic design.

“Our approach is new and fresh and has proven successful in communities and cities that want more than just the status quo. It incorporates knowledge and experience with the energy of the millennial and adaptability to a fast-changing world. We don’t just believe in our approach, we live it, we dance it. It connects communities through truth, respect and knowledge. The old way may have been good enough, but good enough is just not good enough anymore. Communities have too much at stake as investment dollars, talent and momentum quickly seek out areas with promise and potential.

Envisioning your community’s potential should be a refreshing and unique experience, not the mediocre reuse of the same old techniques and repetitive, uninspired SWOT exercises. While the old ways are safe, they are also unremarkable. The problem with the status quo is it doesn’t often connect to the truths that are needed to truly find the will to succeed, and at the end of the day having the will to succeed is more important than anything else. We want to help you find that will through truth, respect, knowledge and innovation.”
